Wigan After Fulham`s Brown

After learning, yesterday, that Jimmy Bullard is on schedule for a comeback before the festive period, we today learn that another of our feisty midfield players could be about to leave.

Michael Brown, who has earned a reputation as something of a hard-man in the midfield area is wanted by Wigan Athletic. It`s thought that Wigan have tried to tempt Fulham into parting with Brown with an opening bid of £2.5 million.

Brown, who is now twenty-nine, isn`t viewed as surplus to requirements by Sanchez but the price may well entice the club into doing a deal.

It remains to be seen whether Brown, who played for Manchester City previously, could be swayed by a return to the north-west.

Yes merlin and yes merlin! Think he knows his days are numered if the rumours about Davis are true. Wigan would mean he could continue playing in the top flight, as I don't think there will be many others chasing at this level.
